Sometimes I still miss you

Sometimes I still miss you

So it's been a little while since you left, but you didn't really have a choice. It's so miserable without you here, you were my best friend, I told you everything. I could have the worst of all days and come home knowing you would be there to comfort me. We were thunder buddies. Ever since you left life just seems harder, I don't think it will get easier without you here. You always made me laugh even though you would annoy me sometimes too. Now that you're gone I'm not sure what to do because every now and then I still cry. You drove me crazy some days and best buddies the next. I never really got to choose what happened on days with you.

The day I got that phone call my life did change, it was hurtful, heart breaking, and so much more. We found out you had bone cancer and I just wasn't ready to lose you. We did what was best for you and now you're in heaven probably making other children happy, they say all dogs go to heaven right? Well I believe you did you were the most loving dog I know you even told me I love you in your own way (barking) and it was the cutest thing ever. I'm sad to say I can no longer chase you, play with you, snuggle with you, or face thunder storms with you. Thanks for being my best friend for years on end.

Still to this day I have your ashes in s box near my bed. I look at it all the time although no one notices I try to hide it. I keep your leash near it too and think of all the times I had to take you out and you would go crazy every time you saw a squirrel, I don't know why you hated them so much or any breathing outside for that matter. You had a personality of your own Mocha. You are always going to be missed I know by many, but you'll always be missed by me.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
